Herpes symptoms after tantric massage

So here it goes:

In August I had a tantric massage. As part of the massage , the masseuse was naked and she did use her body on my back. There was a moment when I felt her pubic hair against my buttocks. From what I recall that was the only time when her genitals touch me. There was a hand job invovled at the end as well. After about 4 days, I started to feel fatigued with a stiff neck and some groin and lower back pain as well. Then I noticed some rash on my buttock around where the two cheeks meet. It was red with slightly itchiness. There were no blisters. Just slight redness. These symptoms lasted for about 2 weeks. Then just recently in the beginning of October I started to feel tired again with similar symptoms of neck pain, groin pain and Lowe back pain. I also feel random itch on my anus and random skin pinching feeling on my buttocks , thighs and some time back. I'm really concerned if this is herpes and would appreciate any feedback.

By random I mean the symptoms are not always there. I would have anal itch for a couple of seconds and it would go away . Similar with pinching feeling . The groin , back and neck pain are consistenct. Right now I'm feeling burning sensation around my anus while siting on a chair.

I will say it one more time. This is not how hsv works. Your anxiety is your only enemy on this. You had no risk and therefore have no herpes infection. Your "symptoms" which are not hsv symptoms at all. Are further proof of this.
This is not meant to be insulting or to down play the way you feel. This is just a Frank as I can be that this is not hsv, no matter how you want to spin it.

This is not hsv in the absence of lesions. The virus simply doesn't actually this way. The risk of hsv from this type of exposure is as close to zero as you can get.

But you could still have herpes without lesions, can't you?
You won't get random symptoms and be lesion free. The virus does not really work that way. You also had no real risk from your exposure
